The name 'Bergerac' immediately brings to mind the first name: Cyrano. A local? No, far from it. He is a character from the play by Edmond Rostand. So not a local. We found it on our walk through the old town, where we were more interested in the living Bergeracoises than in the men, whose statues are in some places unmistakable, but far less entertaining than the people we met.
